While we're at it, I'm pretty sure I suggested this before and there was some reason for it.. Could we display the amount of squad points each squad has in the squad menu? Makes squadreving people when out of tickets a lot easier.
The first problem, in my view, is that AFK detection only works over long periods of time. Say we used AFK detection, how long of being AFK is AFK enough? 15, 30, 60 seconds? Two minutes, 3 minutes? What if you need it there and then, you don't know how long the player's been AFK and how much longer it'll take for them to be kicked from the squad. Hidden timers are incredibly annoying, especially in a game like Empires where seconds have meant the difference between a win and a loss. The second problem is that it'd only help when dealing with AFK players and it wouldn't help when dealing with reticent or impertinent players, the ones who are playing but either don't communicate with the team and so they don't pass lead, or they're actively refusing to use them.
its really not hard all the other people have to vote to kick (4 in a full squad) squads of two cant votekick each other
Needs counter measure to prevent this... ohh, start a vote kick on me ehh? Fine... your all out of the quad and the points are mine!
Necro'd Fucking do it naow pls After playing Verdun, I got additional infomation on how to improve this. In verdun you get a message at the bottom of the screen saying, "(name) Would like to switch positions with you" And they can hit accept or decline. That is one way and here another following the same idea. Make this a squad vote as well, "(name) would like to be squad lead" and people vote yes or no on that in the squad. The only problem I see is how would this get implemented and what would be stopping it. Because I can't really find a problem with my suggestion other than some asshole spamming the squad vote button.
